In an era where Council has consistently voted against measures of social good, stating that addressing homelessness, equality etc is a Provincial/Federal gov issue, it's disappointing that the Mayor & Councillors McKenzie & Gignac have now decided that border control is a Municipal responsibility.

Mayor Dilkens has made it clear, through his constant rhetoric targeting the Federal Government and Justin Trudeau, that his decision is driven by partisan allegiances. ATWE condemns these statements. Partisanship and personal political ambition have no place in municipal government. +

The meeting is happening at 9am over zoom. There’s no comments from councillors or the public allowed. This vote is crucial to save the tunnel bus. Please email all the city councillors and tell them you want to keep the Windsor Detroit tunnel bus. +

After another tragic pedestrian death last month, this project is a good reminder that transit can help the city reach its Vision Zero goals.

It will also look into sidewalks for the park, develop an active transportation plan for access, & speak with business owners in the park about possible temporary options to further improve transit service by using their properties as part of a route. +

🚨Residents in wards 4, 5 & 6 contact your councillor to pressure them to vote against the Mayor’s veto. If we can change just 1 vote, the veto won’t pass🚨
We condemn the Mayor’s use of veto power to end the tunnel bus service.

The tunnel bus, and transit as a whole, is a vital part of our city. Use our form to write to your Councillor in less than 1 minute and demand they revisit these changes, before they irreparably harm our community ⬇️

Council has specifically targeted the tunnel bus, a historic service provided by the City of Windsor that allows for anyone to safely cross the border. Without it, the only way to cross is in your own car. +
